For Pete’s sake…my mom has heard of Berra and Mattingly and she once asked me “why can’t I hear the guys talking?” when she came to her first ever live baseball game.

Baseball is a marathon-but once you get to the playoffs it’s a sprint. The hot team wins the ring not always the “best” team. The Yankees have shown clearly that the most money doesn’t guarantee anything. Highest MLB payroll the last 12 years and ONE ring to show for it. Look at the marlins and giants, they won rings without massive payrolls. Baseball is about young talent, making it to the playoffs and then getting hot. A hot starter in the playoffs can almost single handedly win a ring. I like the Tribe’s chances better than the Cavs (although Gilbert is an amazing owner and I’d pop a few bottles of champagne if he bought the Tribe) and WAY better than the Browns who seem to be quickly establishing themselves as the LA Clippers of the NFL. I wouldn’t cheer for the Yankees if they were playing the Taliban! Being a fan is being a fan, it’s not about rings it’s about loving your team and enjoying watching them win and lose.

Sure, the Cubs haven’t won it all in 103 years, but at least they had all those Bulls’ championships to fall back on, not to mention the White Soxes. And the Red Soxes had a long drought too, but meanwhile they got championships with the Celtics and the Patriots.

The last time Cleveland won the whole thing was the 1964 Browns, and that was before the AFL-NFL merger.

I just turned 53 years old and I’m starting to seriously doubt I’ll see the Indians, Cavs, or Browns win a championship in my lifetime.

Couple the Indians with the Miseries of the Cavs and Browns and oh boy. I feel good about the Cash that Gilbert and Lerner have, and feel they are on the right track…but the Indians really worry me. Its always good to get the whining out of the way heading into the first.
